AF13Support the 2012-2013 Annual Fund for Monroe Community College
2013 Scholarship ReceptionWhen you BELIEVE . . . you make everything possible.

 

If you have not yet made your gift to the Annual Fund, there is still time to include your gift in our Honor Roll of Donors!

 

Your gift can help a student like Melanie Forshee '14 who is a recipient of the Carol Cloos Memorial Scholarship, a fund established to honor Carol who taught at MCC for more than 20 years and established by Ed Cloos in memory of his wife Carol.

 

When Melanie, an adult student who came to MCC after several life and medical struggles, learned she was granted the scholarship, she was "so absolutely touched and honored, she cried!"  "To have anyone take such an interest in my educational efforts was such a special surprise."

 

Your gift makes a significant, important difference to students like Melanie, and hundreds of others at MCC.  Please make your gift by July 1, to include your name in this year's Annual Fund Honor Roll of Donors.
